The Only Black Friday Shopping Guide You Need (Really, Really)

We agree that the best way to spend Black Friday is with family, not waiting with our faces smushed up against a glass door like in that episode of Friends when Monica takes Rachel and Phoebe to a wedding dress sample sale and all tulle breaks loose (this was supposed to be a hell pun, lmk how it landed). We also agree the sales that ensue this time of year are insane–like literally reason to not buy anything until this point because whatever you would have wanted is 10/10 now discounted. And probably significantly less expensive than it would have been at retail.


In the spirit of honoring Friday as a family day, but not ignoring that a deal is a deal and we (or at least me, I mean I) love a deal, here’s a handy guide to all the very good things you could buy at a discount between now and Cyber Monday. Consider it your wayfinder, detailing impending deals, broken down by category and specific item. I ask just one thing: Do not, I repeat do not buy anything unless you’re using Leandra’s list of “questions to pop before you shop” and remember: stuff is fluff. (But I could use a pair of boots.) Happy TG! Want to share a pie?



Clothing + Accessories

Boots


My favorite category! I recently wrote a boot shopping guide and now here I am again with a selection that is exclusively on sale! I included this great pair of durable cozy ones in the aforementioned guide, and now they’re 40% off. I also love these equally comfy shearling lined moto boots, great for especially colder days. These scale-y boots have been on my list a while. Ditto for THESE, on sale for $108 from Topshop, and these with an awesome heel for $112. For the holidays, what about the boot equivalent to tinsel? Or a pair of two-toned western ones, or these old fashioned ones both of which would fulfill any and all fancy-but-still-warm footwear needs. In the tall boot category, I love this buckle strap style that’s finally on sale and these snazzy embossed ones that clock in at $135.

Coats and Jackets


The category of necessity, yes, but outerwear can be an aesthetic treat, too. Like this Ganni wool coat with a high neck that you’ll undoubtedly be tempted to wear every day. Or this Isabel Marant tweed one that’s a little bit spiffier. Need Supply’s sale is always solid, and this quilted plaid coat is $126! I love this classic A.P.C. trench, or this longer belted lilac one (it’s under $100) worn over a chunky knit now, and with a white button-down as soon as spring is sprung. Or! What about this cropped tomato puffer or a cozy duffle coat with a price reduced by $100? Oh my leopard, what about this velvet one from Batsheva or this one with the collar? I’m manifesting a trip to see the Nutcracker right now, can you tell? In other news, this Junya Watanable is 50% off, and Veda’s leather jackets are 25% off. HELLO. Finally, don’t sleep on this dreamy fringed number I would gladly hide my sweatpants under.

Knits


I’ve wanted this collared half-zip for what feels like forever (about 4 months, if you want to get technical). Ooooh, and I found this lurex knit from Shrimps with a collar that resembles a lettuce leaf! And this delightful intarsia turtleneck knit that just needs a fireplace to feel complete. For some fun, check out this cozy rainbow knit, or this Tibi one that I’ve been eyeing. Naadam makes my favorite cashmere sweaters and some styles are up to 50% off. Here’s a patchwork knit from Proenza Schouler PSWL, also at 50% off. And look at this perfect grandpa cardigan vest, this vest for under $100, and this dreamy wrap sweater. Not a sweater per se, but I highly recommend you snag a fleece while you’re at it, and this one is IT.

Bottoms


I love when jeans and everyday bottoms go on sale because the cost-per-wear possibilities seem especially favorable. Grab a pair of these, because it’s a good day when Re/Done goes on sale. I love this perfect pair of verrrrry high-rise cream jeans to fulfill my seasonal #stickofbutter dreams. Eve Denim makes the softest jeans and these straight-leg ones are discounted by more than $100. If denim isn’t for you, what about this statement pair of checked trousers, or a very cool pair of khakis for $91? Salmon-colored elastic waist pants, perfect for holiday eating! Speaking of good mealtime pants, I can personally vouch for these thick ribbed leggings.

Bags


I may purchase this little drawstring pouch for myself, in case you’re interested in twinning. Then I might get this under $100 bag for my sister, and I like this chic PVC one for my mom (gift idea: fill a bag with little trinkets for a double unwrapping experience). I own this shearling tote, which fits a ton, and I like this cutie (you get an extra 10% off with code BLACK10) which fits nothing but that’s THE POINT. WConcept (which is having an up to 75% off + extra 15% off site-wide sale with the code BLACK 19) has really original bags you may not have seen elsewhere, like this $106 pouch bag in a fun print, or this one that’s called the “Merry Christmas” bag. I also found this wintry faux fur pouch for $57, and a $53 tweed commuter tote that could moonlight as a Santa sack.

Wild Card Items


I love this tie-neck denim top and this gingham blazer that is now under $50!!!!! I’m also very jazzed about this perfect LBHD (little black holiday dress) worn with these hoop earrings or these adorable bee ones and my every day gold chain necklace that is 25% off. Speaking of jewelry, what about this $50 birthstone bracelet for a sweet personal pal gift? Or a rainbow huggie earring if you want to give something to yourself. Oooh, and this is an ideal going-out cami if I ever saw one! Why not try wearing it over this Sandy Liang camo mesh turtleneck (30% off) and a pair of these floral socks.

Beauty

This is my favorite cheek illuminator and this is a cult-favorite clean lipstick, both now 20% off. I love this daily moisturizer from Supergoop and this hydrating mask from Paula’s Choice to combat winter facial dryness, plus a bit of this setting powder gently brushed on top. Tarte Cosmetics is having a 25-30% off sale, with savings increasing over the weekend! I love the glittery shades in this eye shadow palette. To the delight of anyone who experiences hormonal acne (myself included), STARFACE is having 25% off site-wide. Moving on to hair, this Briogeo honey hair mask is great but I’d buy it for the cute bottle alone. Drybar’s entire blow dryer kit is 20% off, which includes my favorite dry shampoo. Oh, and I suppose now’s a good time to stock up on Boy Brow?

Home + Miscellaneous

You can’t do hygge without a good pair of slippers in the mix. I also love this gorgeous mug or this cute little tea cup and saucer and this plaid blanket for couch hibernating. Specifically this couch. With a delicious pastry-scented candle lit while reading with the help of this cute little lamp. Once you migrate to bed, check out these sheets by Brooklinen, but first don’t forget to take a hot bath and dry off with these very plush towels from Parachute. On that note, feel free to leave your towel on all day. If you happen to have a dog, or even if you don’t, this fringe knit sweater is worth a heartwarming glance.
